And I wasnt an impersonator, but I thought I was fabulous!
In a 1992 interview withThe Los Angles Times, Kavner said, “Why destroy the illusion for children?

Still, you have to wonder how Jennifer Tilly would have sounded as Marge.
But it’s a role she landed in 1998 that horror fans will remember Tilly best for.

Jennifer Tilly didn’t become Marge Simpson, but maybe that was for the best.
She’s far more suited to the complexities of Tiffany Valentine.
The satiric adventures of a working-class family in the misfit city of Springfield.
The Simpsonsis available to watch on Disney+.
